@All Seeing Eye that’s not true mate, you make mopeds faster by up jetting and a high flow air filter

[@MassiveBluntMan]

@All Seeing Eye with proper performance exhaust, jets and tuning a small pod can be beneficial for a race setup, but for road tuning standard is more than enough. Save time, money and effort, drill holes and get some rubber plugs for tuning

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello Makai for now I left the valve cover hose breather connected to the stock filter but you can buy a baby filter for that or a catch can. About the bogging I will up jet a pilot jet to #42 and the main jet to #115 is also about your altitude id you are above 2000 ft or at sea level plus I will check the valve clearance to .Thank you for watching my video

[@fatmikesvapemotoandtech.3240]

@@VirberelloScooterTips are you saying that you just left the original air box for the stock filter on when you replaced the stock filter with the high-flow filter? So that there would still be vacuum?

[@RellyOhBoy]

Anytime there is increased airflow through the engine (aftermarket filter/exhaust) you need to richen the mixture. Try going up one one size on the pilot jet and 1 or 2 sizes on main jet.

[@Kevin-zy2xz]

Hello, super helpful video. I also have a pod filter on my 8y6 with 80cc bore kit, valve spacing is perfect. But wondering what size jet you reccomend. I have #96 in right now but it hiccups on bumps in the road. And anything less for jet seemed to make it run lean (white spark plug)

[@Martyimgay]

My 150cc got kart 2 wires to the starter solenoid are hot. I’ve already replaced the solenoid 3 times so I don’t think that’s it. The 2 wires stay hot the whole time it’s running. It will start and run but I have to hit start it because when I turn the key it only clicks. So after a hot start I’m golden I just unplug the starter solenoid and I’m good and wires aren’t hot anymore.

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello my friend that feel to me like a short inside the starter motor you can try to open the starter motor and clean and inspect the inside but try to do not damage the starter inside wire you can clean the inside with a electronic cleaner spray but that can also be a rusty solenoid inside corrosion and that will be a 10 dollars or less online to replace

@@VirberelloScooterTips I’ve replaced the solenoid 3 times but could a short from the key to the rear be giving it constant power

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

I don’t think but anything is possible if you can after you turn the scooter disconnect the solenoid not from the two 10mm but from the little connection that goes to the front or you can test with a multimeter if you see any voltage coming from upfront

What if you have a 4stroke scooter. I don't think that the carb has a fuel adjustment.

Hello my friend my scooter is 4 stroke scooter and if you change the air filter you should reject and adjust the carburetor to keep the balance between air and fuel

Um why didnt you did any remap on carburetor? I mean does that need it?(i hope you answer me)

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello Rejetting the carburetor is key to balancing the air-fuel mixture, which ensures smooth and safe operation. Many riders, myself included, like to test the scooter first because factors like altitude and humidity can have a big impact on how it runs. If the engine performs well after testing, it’s a sign that no adjustment is necessary, which saves the extra work of rejetting. This approach also helps avoid unnecessary changes and keeps the setup aligned with the local conditions.

Which jet are you referring to this area is new to me I appreciate your help thank you

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello my friend if you place the performance air filter you will have to balance the fuel and air so you will need to change the main jet inside the carburetor at list you need to place a #115 or # 120 if you are at sea level . Thank you for watching my video

What about the video that comes after installing the air filter upgrade

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

After rejetting the carb and installing the performance air flow filter, the scooter ran great. However, my weekly gasoline expenditure increased from $5 to $9, raising my annual cost from $260 to $468. Additionally, having an exposed performance air filter poses a problem in the rain, as a wet filter won't perform optimally. Despite these drawbacks, a performance filter is a cool feature for a racing-style scooter. Thank you for watching my video

Hello Joel I'm not to familiar with scooter that they have the gas tank on the bottom but I know that they have a little pulsating fuel pump like a Mikuni Fuel Pump what comes to my mind that you need to prime the fuel line system and remove air from the line to make the fuel flow in the line the best way is to place the hose lower then your tank and let the gas flow then close the hose and without letting the air in the hose again at that point connect that hose to the carb I hope this can help you

[@sion9611]

virberello GY6 Scooter Tips thank you so much for the help I will try this tomorrow and will let you know how it goes I believe you’re correct though because I did something like that and hooked it all back up and it’s starting up but not staying running probably due to the air in line

[@sion9611]

virberello GY6 Scooter Tips I tried priming the fuel lines/filter and as soon as I went to crank the fuel just dropped back down into tank when the petcock valve opened with vacuum... I don’t know what to do next lol if the tank was on top this would be no problem

If you put a coke bottle plastic over the filter and make holes in the right places you wont get water in. Try it

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello my friend I try and that help a little but the water mist still limit the filter performance one day I will find the right solution and when I make that perfect I will make a new video

Hello I really like your channel because these are good video’s with good instructions. I also like that you reply to most of the comments. +1 subscriber. I have a question. I have a Kymco agility 50 but it accelerates pretty slow. What should I change to make it accelerate faster?

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello my friend to a Agility 50cc you can try to change lighter roller weight at the variator , place a performance air filter , reject the carburetor but at the end all this changes will do a little change in your scooter performance because is a 50cc and the combustion chamber / is small unless you place a 80cc kit . Thank you for watching my video

[@Alexclk230]

Hi again, I asked you before, but know I have other problem.So I have a performance air filter, a bigger exhaust, a brand new Naraku 50-80cc carburetor with 84 main jet, all hoses and intake manifold new, but I can't make my 50cc 4t scooter to go round. It starts very well, but when idle it keeps accelerate by itself and then decelarate and so on.If I accelerate myself at idle it accelerates good let's say, but after I let the throtle it gives sign to stop and then I have to adjust the idle screw to give more gas. If I give more gas from that screw increases the acceleration. I don't know what to do to go like it does before. Could this be from the air filter?Should I oil it? Or could be from the acceleration cable?But it doesn't seems to be broken or destroyed. Thank you.

Sounds like you may need an valve adjustment

I have 2 small tubes going into the filter. One is clear with a cap at the end that is coming only from the air filter box ( i am assuming that just goes away) and the other is going into somewhere in the bike. What do I do with the one that is connected to the bike?

Hello my friend the one is connected with the bike goes to the valve cover in front of your engine

Everytime I put the racing air filter on it runs like shit but if I take the filter off it runs great. What could be the problem?

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello Daniel I think is the jets every time you play with air or fuel you need to have the perfect ratio of 14 part of air 1 part of fuel I think you need to place a smaller jets when you have the performance air filter and also depend on your altitude of your location

Hello Merjim Jimenez you need to have a nibbi curve or a hose extension because if you just place the filter you do not have room because the frame is to close to the carburetor. Thank you for watching my video

[@jayranger9605]

Why not remove the stock air box?

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

Hello Jay good question !! so you pay attention to the video ah ah ah ah yes I did not remove the stock air box because if is going to rain a lot in Florida I will have to switch to the stock air box because the performance air filter are not rain friendly and when they get wet they do not breath anymore Thank you for watching my video

[@jayranger9605]

virberello GY6 Scooter Tips thank you for your quick response. Haha yes I pay close attention because I’m repairing a Chinese scooter I ordered multiple parts based off your videos and I will be installing them this week. Good to know I was thinking maybe you kept it there in case you wanted to switch back. Thank you for the answer now I feel more confident going into the project 👍

[@RellyOhBoy]

I would remove the stock air box and just put a rain sock over the pod filter to protect it from water spray. Some have the airbox under the seat and some have the airbox outside above the CVT. Either way it reduces weight by removing it.

[@giovanirosas9958]

So what happens when it gets wet ?

[@VirberelloScooterTips]

When a high flow air filter gets wet, it can negatively impact the performance of the engine it is designed to protect. This is because a wet air filter can cause several problems, including: Reduced Air Flow: A wet air filter can cause a restriction in air flow, as the wet media can clog the filter and reduce the amount of air that is able to pass through it. Engine Misfire: If there is a lack of air flow, the engine can run lean, meaning there is not enough fuel being mixed with the air to keep the engine running properly. This can cause the engine to misfire, resulting in a loss of power and possibly damaging the engine over time. Corrosion: A wet air filter can also cause corrosion in the engine, as moisture can promote rust and other forms of corrosion. Thank you for watching my video
